Cíle předmětu
Brief Description: This course focuses on selected aspects of communicative grammar and the role which grammar and grammatical relations play in texts. Course Outline: The course will mostly be based on new findings in English grammar revealed by corpus linguistics; it will draw on expositions in Longman Grammar of Spoken and Written English and essay-style chapters in McCarthy's Spoken Language and Applied Linguistics. We will study the options available in English for expressing personal opinion (stance adverbials and other stance markers), word order and its variations (the passive, the existential there, dislocation, clefting), lexical expressions (collocations and lexical bundles) in speech and writing, the grammar of conversation (dysfluency, errors), constructional principles of spoken grammar, and discourse markers. (LGSWE) We will also explore the ways a text holds together (cohesion and coherence and their central position in textual grammar) and some issues connected with register analysis of English, such as formality, politeness, impersonality (Halliday and Hasan). Throughout the course, we will be analysing extracts of language used in fiction, the media, etc., as well as following the issues on ample examples of actual data (such as transcripts of conversations) provided in the core textbooks.
